St. Stephen's Church, Trulben

Highlight • Religious Site

A very well-kept church with a great outdoor area. Here you can explore a lot and go into yourself. It's wonderfully quiet behind the church.

The Krappen cave is located slightly above Trulben (under the Krappenfelsen) directly on the new premium hiking trail "Trulber Sandhasenweg (11km)". The cave is signposted from the premium path and is particularly entertaining and interesting for children.

Old Quarry in the Palatinate Forest

Highlight • Structure

This part of the Sandhasentour is a very beautiful but not entirely undemanding path. We just did the little loop. Our dog is a bit tired of hiking and then this sultry heat. In the forest it is still pleasantly cool.

Lily of the valley - gorse - orchids and all sorts of other herbs could be seen today on the northern part of the sand rabbit tour 😅
In addition, a cave, a cave lake and a summit cross. So so much to look at and take pictures of that a 4 km hike became a half-day tour. 😊 The …
